In an emotional social media post, Lekau Sehoana, the CEO of Drip Footwear, addressed recent rumours concerning his personal life. His post, captioned with a broken heart emoji, revealed the turmoil he has been facing amidst his company’s milestones. “It has taken so much from me to do this, as you can see the date. It’s been ready since yesterday. I guess this is where we are now?” Sehoana wrote, hinting at the heavy burden he has carried.
Sehoana’s statement comes in response to media reports alleging that he, along with his soon-to-be ex-wife and son, were evicted from a property in Waterfall. He categorically refuted these claims, calling them “factually incorrect” and suggesting that they were intended to overshadow Drip’s five-year celebration.
The entrepreneur clarified the situation, stating that he has not lived with his soon-to-be ex-wife since 2021 and currently has no access to his son. He explained that he had been renting the property for his soon-to-be ex-wife to ensure a stable home for his child. However, complications arose when he was informed by the landlord that the police needed access to the property in order to seek his soon-to-be ex-wife’s assistance with their investigations into the murder of DRIP’s former MD Ms Glenda Ndlanzi.
When police arrived, they discovered that his soon-to-be ex-wife had sublet the property without his or the landlord’s consent, violating the lease agreement. This breach prompted Sehoana to terminate the lease. “It is for the above-stated reason that I decided to cancel the lease agreement,” he wrote.
Sehoana also shed light on the ongoing divorce process, revealing his efforts to expedite and settle the matter, which have been unsuccessful so far. Due to legal advice, he refrained from commenting further on the divorce and related issues.
Despite the personal and public challenges, Sehoana remains focused on his company’s achievements and continues to seek resolution in his private life. The statement underscores the difficulties faced by public figures in managing personal crises while maintaining their professional responsibilities.
